Dollar couple Jock & Eileen Macdonald, currently enjoying a weekend with family in Deeside, celebrated their 70th Wedding Anniversary in some style at the Library in Dollar Academy,. the school where they first met. This took place on the afternoon of Friday 16th August although the big day was actually today, the 18th.
They were married at the Parish Church at Dollar and their bridesmaid was none other than former Lord-Lieutenant, Sheena Cruickshank who was delighted to join current Lord-Lieutenant, Johnny Stewart, who presented the couple with the Congratulatory Message from the King & Queen, and Provost Donald Balsillie who handed over an Anniversary card from the local authority. The couple remain fully active and are still involved in activities at the school where they met.
